Daily Obsessive Google Rank Check:
Pool Cues: #1
Pool Cue: #2 (Grrrr…)

Well, all I can say is that its a good thing I don’t bet on football for a living.  Looks like I’m off to a stellar start, going 1-4 over the first 5 bowl games.  Since I clearly haven’t learned my lesson about picking dogs for bowl games, I’m going with Boise St. +3 over TCU tonight.

Now the more unfortunate news.  It seems we’ve dropped a spot on Google to #2 for pool cue.  It looks like the increasingly frequent “Google Shuffle” is going on again, as there are new players above the fold who haven’t ever been there (or who haven’t been there in a while).  What’s even more unfortunate is that rankings are eventually going to be a thing of the past, as it seems that Google is going to move to the customized search results.  They’re already putting customized results in (check out that little “Customized based on recent search activity” message in the right corner) and I’m sure will be adding from their Digg style tool in 2009.

Should be interesting to see where the dust settles.
